Oliver,
Comparing Vanderveen's picture with your sideview drawing, you will note the C60X in Soviet service was modified with a door, a walkway on the left hand side, and spare wheel fitted to the rear.
The C60X was delivered normally with Lindsay type house bodies in Laboratory, Machinery, Stores and Switchboard configurations. I have never seen the configuration as pictured before. I understand the Soviets were supplied with Machinery trucks only, identifiable by the workbench which folds up into the left-hand side. It must be a Soviet modification of a Machinery Lorry into a mobile kitchen or similar?
Regards,
Hanno
